          I’ve been trying really hard to only interrupt if the person I’m talking to is struggling to find the right word or how to express what they are trying to say.

          Their reactions are usually along the lines of “yes thank you, someone understands” and it makes me feel helpful instead of an impatient ass. Win, win.

      They interrupt me when I go off on a tangent, so it balances out.
